Basically all the later Naomi games, Super Monkey Ball, Virtua Fighter 4, Wild Riders, Asian Dynamite.

Arguably Billy Hatcher and Sonic Heroes, maybe Phantasy star online episode 3, almost definitely Blue Burst.

>>3794174
It is missing Outrun 2 and Shenmue 3. Some of the later Dreamcast games had a list of the future games in the console and those 2 were there.
Shenmue 3 is pretty obvious because there was already content that was cut off from 2 because of Dreamcast's ending.

the saturn d-pad was really a complicated mechanism. By the time the xbox came around, lots of outsourcing was common so outsourcing small parts like that wouldn't be too easy.

By the time it became more reasonable to get this stuff done outsourced, nobody cared. Real shame.

DC d-pad also is a silver class piece, but nothing really compares to the saturn pad.

SEGA actually were working on a much better emulator before the console was discontinued, there's a .iso of the prototype somewhere. It's still not great but given a couple of years they would've got it right, even PC emulation was pretty janky at the time.

Crazy Taxi 3, which probably suffered the most from the console's death as it went from retaining its concept initially before being rushed out the door without online play, local multiplayer, a day/night cycle and a bunch of other things they'd planned from the start.

The Genesis stuff is fine, it was actually a really good emulator at the time, people were raving about it. It's certainly not amazing by to-day's standards, but quite playable. Also that Smashpack is worth it for Virtua Cop 2 alone, that port kicks ass. Also SEGA Swirl rules. I played that shit out of that disc when I was younger.

Thief 2 as well, although that version was further behind in development.

Shinobi on PS2 also started as a DC game, and I'd wager that several earlier Capcom games from that generation like Capcom Fighting Evolution, Resident Evil Outbreak, maybe even REmake and RE Zero would have made it on the system. SNK titles like SNK vs Capcom and Samurai Shodown V would have been there too. HotD3 runs on Sega Chihiro which is similar in power to that of an Xbox but Sega could and would have ported it down, probably with less of a quality loss than HotD1 suffered from arcade to Saturn.
